the last two pictures you posted on the last page are the proboat jets. i may be mistaken but they have the huge plastic cover and 6 screws holing them down.

No, they are 25mm ABC Hobby jet ski drives. But I can see why you thought that, they look quite similar. When the Proboat drives came out, we thought they were just scaled down ABC drives. But they had other differences, so probably not.

Nice to see you back Sundogz, and I completely agree about needing a screen.

You see, Chi. It's not always just about avoiding flooring the throttle when you are grounded. If you have streams with lots on peagravel on the bed, and a strong current as in rocky streams in mountain areas, you can be in 6 inches of water or more and stuff can still be sucked in. I know you'd be crawlin' if you had the places to do it, but you lakedwellers don't know how lucky you are. You only have to deal with twigs the size of Greece And an unfortunate habit of pushing the envelope just that bit too far. As in trying a 5s pack

Very snazzy indeeed. The two-tone look really compliments the boat. and on my screen it doesn't look black. Or blue. It looks like a deep purple colour and amazin' . And what is that scoop you've got there. That also looks good.

Since Suns post, I've looked at both the air filter and organizer screen, I will go over to the shop with the extra jet I have and flow bench both screens, see which is less restrictive when they got time for me to around in between them tryin to make money..

Hi Gang
Just a little more net surfin before I get myself in real trouble with the wife and order Steves SicRC complete boat for $260 including shipping. Found a basic NQD Tear Into in USA, and not even far away in Cincinnati, OH for $51 including shipping. Had em in white and yellow. A white one will come in a brown truck by Tuesday next week.

I am going to look at my current motor collection before ordering all of the "best practices" stuff, but will want at least a water cooling plate for a brushless outrunner. I have a bunch of ESCs and a watercooling plate might keep them alive for a while. Do any of you have some quick and reasonable US sources for the watercooling stuff?

I use Corrosion X on all of my boats and seaplanes. I've had receivers swimming for over 10 minutes without issue. Since I won't see open water for quite a while where I live I may be able to rebuild it correctly even before boating season.
